THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT To fire, the powder charge and bullet are loaded via a ramrod. Using a standard magazine with a single shot follower, an unloaded 5.56 case is loaded into the mag, inserted in magazine well and loaded just like a standard rifle. Once the rifle is fired, the empty brass is ejected manually and then reloaded. ![]() Here is a quick demo vid... Black powder demo vid We tested it with 6 pellets and 2 bullets(and a very very long string) and it held together just fine. Now it is off to MP test. |

It is a modified .223 case that uses a 209 primer. Currently .50 cal. Should have pricing and other specs tomorrow.

I would like to see a .50 flintlock AR, and instead of an actual magazine, hollow out an AR magazine to hold the patches, balls, etc.

IIRC, they sold the one they had, and have no desire to make anymore. As far as this one, I'm not really keen on the loaded case for the primer. |
